The world is so rich. Watch it a dozen times and you’ll still be discovering new flourishes and little moments.

In 1941, after a long walk in the country, George de Mestral returned home to find his dog covered in burs. A short while later he was frustrated, his dog was annoyed, and now both were covered in burs.

As he continued to pluck bur after bur after bur, an idea started to grow.

It wasn’t until 1955 that George was felt the idea finally worthy to patent. He called it, “Velcro.”

Good ideas take time to become great ideas.

Keep every good idea in your back pocket. Work at it from time to time. Buy moleskines in bulk or be haut digital with Catch. Just jot everything down, however you prefer to do it.
